This is the second part of my story. I hope you all don't feel too bad
about Ganondorf now. Remember he is evil or going to be…. We all know he
is. Please feel free to cry at any scenes or go 'Awww poor Ganondorf' Oh
and in case you are wondering, this isn't the game Malon. This is her mom.
Ganondorf's Childhood Years
Part 2-Remorce then, Fight.
Ganondorf slowly came to life. The dreadful smell of dried blood was in his nose. The smell of decaying bodies also found it's way to his small nose. He slowly opened his eyes, as light appeared through his only window. Casting everything in living color for him to see. He pushed himself off the blood stained floor. Getting to his knees and starting at the dead bodies of his loved ones.
The horrible night came flooding back to him. Tears swelled up in his eyes. His left eye twitching, from emotional pain.
He slowly got to his feet and inched his way to the body of his mother. He bent down. Her eyes were still wide open in shock. She never had a chance to defend herself.
Tears fell from his eyes to her soft checks. He raised his hand, and shut her eyes. Then, he turned to his Teacher. He made sure what he first thought was right. They were all killed.
He got up and ran outside. Trying to find someone, anyone to help him.
"Someone! ANYONE! PLEASE! Help me! Please, please. Someone." He cried. He fell once again to his knees. Sobbing in his hands. His whole life just did a three sixty on him. In addition, he wasn't even there to do anything about it.
'If only I had stayed! I could of helped. I could of done something. Anything.' He thought Sadly to himself.
He had never seen death before. He never saw such blood shed. It frightened him, and yet made him want to cause more of it. He wanted to find the person or people who did it, and do the same to them. Such pain ripped through his heart that a small boy like himself could not take.
His clothes themselves smelled of blood. Him, being soaked in his own mother's blood. He ran out of Gerudo's Fortress and into the valley. He ran to the side of the valley. Looking over the cliff's edge. He wanted to be cleaned. Wash away everything. There was only one quick way to do that.
He took a deep breath and jumped over the side of the long cliff. A yell came from his throat. Not one of fright, but excitement.
He hit the water with a plunk. Sinking down for a minute, then going up. The current drifted him downstream. He had never been down stream before. He waited to get far away from that place. As far as possible.
He let the current take him to a lake deposit. Where, he fell down a small waterfall, and into the lake below.
He was dumped under water for only a few seconds before he pushed himself up. He took a breath of fresh air. Then, went closer to the shoreline. Scrubbing the blood from his clothes. He rubbed himself so hard that his skin became reddened.
He never wanted to see blood again.
"I just wish there was something I could do. Anything that could put a stop to this and get the Gerudo's back. They're my only family left. I have to find them and save them." He said to himself.
"Save who, boy." A voice asked.
Ganondorf nearly jumped out of his skin. He turned around quick to see a man, maybe in his late twenties, early thirties.
"Who…who are you?" Ganondorf asked. Getting to his feet. Readjusting his dagger holder.
"Whoa boy. I am only trying to help you. I am a Professor of the Lake. I am studying the water of this Lake. Now, I told you who I am. Who are you?" He asked.
"I'm Ganondorf." He said, quietly.
"Ganondorf uh? Well, I have never seen a Hyrulan look quite the way you do." Professor said.
"Well, that's because I am not a Hyrulan. I am a Gerudo. The only male born in over one hundred years." Ganondorf said, rather shyly.
"Oh. I have never even seen a Gerudo before. Are all you green skinned?" He asked, taking out a notebook and writing down something.
"No. I'm the only green skinned person I know of. Though I haven't been outside of the Gerudo Valley for that long." Ganondorf said, peering over to see what the Professor was writing.
"Well, that's odd. I have never seen a boy with green skin before. Would you mind letting me run some tests on you?" He asked.
"Ummm……. I guess I don't. But what are you going to do?" Ganondorf asked.
"Oh, just a few minor tests. Nothing to worry about." He said, smiling down at Ganondorf.
**Two hours later**
"I feel sour." Said Ganondorf.
"Yes, after swimming for how long you did, you should be." He said, writing more in his booklet.
"Why do you keep a shark in your pool?" He asked.
"Oh, I keep track on how the water affects the fish life. What better way to do that then to test a shark?" Professor said, cheerfully.
"But, making me swim in the water WITH the shark to run a simple test?" Ganondorf said.
"Oh. Sorry about that Ganondorf. I just wanted to see how fast your adrenaline goes." The Professor said.
"Adrena what?" Ganondorf asked.
"Adrenaline dear boy. It makes your muscle's move faster in a case of life or death." The Professor said. Writing down something else.
"Oh. Can I go now? I want to go to me friend's house." Ganondorf said.
"And where is your friend's house?" The Professor asked.
"At the Ranch near the center of the field." Said Ganondorf.
"The Ranch? That's really far away. Are you sure you can make it all that way by yourself?" He asked, concerned.
"Yes. I have made it from the Fortress to the Ranch and back without too much trouble. I get really tried but I'm fine." Ganondorf said.
"Really? Well, run along there. I hope you have a good time at your Friend's house. Please visit anytime you want too!" He yelled after Ganondorf, as Ganondorf took off to the exit.
"I will!" Ganondorf yelled back.
He ran with all his might. As soon as he left view, the Professor started to mumbled to himself.
"How could a kid his age, run so fast and run for so long? No normal person could swim that long without becoming extremely tried." He said, putting that into his notes along with the other weird things Ganondorf could do.
Ganondorf, during his two hour stay, had out swam a shark, dived to the very bottom of the pool, got all the jewels and came back up without being in need of air. He had also gotten mad at himself for braking something, and jars of potions started to brake. When Ganondorf calmed down, the jars stopped braking.
"I wonder if that boy is a Magic holder. He must be of some kind of magic descendent, to carry such power inside of him without even knowing it exists." He said. He turned around to clean up the mess that was left. Putting his notebook on the shelf and getting to work.
Ganondorf reached the Ranch.
"Malon!" He yelled out. He slowly walked forward.
Malon came out of the house and came to greet him.
"Ganon! You're here! I thought you would be gone for good!" She said.
"No way. I would come back." Ganondorf said.
"Yes, but I wasn't sure. What happened when you got back? Did they yell at you for being gone?" She asked.
Ganondorf looked down. His eyes became glossy again.
"What happened? They didn't kick you out did they?" She asked, coming to him and giving him a hug.
"No. They didn't kick me out. They…… they're dead." He said, sniffling.
"Dead? What? How killed them? The whole tribe is dead?" She asked.
"No. Not the whole tribe. Just my Mom, Teacher and Aunt are. The rest are missing." He said.
"Oh no. I'm so sorry Ganon. I had no idea. What could of happened to a whole tribe of warriors?" She asked, mainly to herself.
"I don't know…. Someone… no, a lot of some ones must of done this." He said
"Who do you think could be that strong?" She asked.
"I don't know. But I am going to find out. That's why I came here." He said.
"Oh, you want me to help?" She asked.
"No. I need a horse and some weapons." He said.
"I can help you with the horse, but the weapons, will be a little tricky. The only place that they sell weapons at is the Bizarre in Castle Town." She said.
"Oh, I guess it's up to me to get the weapons. I could use a new pair of clothes too." He said, looking down at his wet, dirty clothes with holes in them.
"You can say that again. They also have a small clothes shop. I'll go with you." She said, running to get the horses.
Ganondorf slowly followed, when he saw a man walk around the corner.
"Oh. Who are you boy? A customer?" He asked.
"No. I'm a friend of Malon's. Who are you?" Ganondorf asked.
"I'm Max. Malon's Dad. And what's your name?" He asked.
"My name is Ganondorf. And what's a Dad?" Ganondorf asked.
"Why, the man who is married to your mom." He said.
"My mom isn't married. I'm the only male is the whole tribe. So, what does a Dad do?" Ganondorf asked.
"A dad is like a mom only a guy. He teaches his son stuff like fishing, making things and work. You mean to say you don't have a Dad?" Max asked.
"That's right. But, I have…umm had a mom." Ganondorf said.
"Oh, I'm sorry Ganondorf." He said.
"Don't be. You didn't do it." Ganondorf said.
Max shifted uncomfortable. Not liking the silence. Then Malon came around with two horses.
"Hop on Ganon." She said.
"ok." Said Ganondorf. Waving to Max, and getting on the horse.
"Where are you going young lady?" Max asked.
"Out to Castle Town. Ganon needs my help Dad. Please let me help him." She said, putting on a pouting face.
"Yes, but be careful!" He said, as we took off to the city.
'So, that's what a dad is? Strange. I wish I had one right about now to worry about me.' Thought Ganondorf.
Him and Malon made there way through the crowds and into a shop.
"Hello? Is anyone here?" Malon asked.
"Back here." Called a voice in the back. Malon dragged Ganondorf to the back. There was a big, fat lady wearing a dress in the back.
"I'd like to buy a tunic, belt, boots, gloves, and under suit." Said Malon.
"For whom?" She asked.
"For him." Said Malon pointing to Ganondorf.
"Alright. These should do. I have the boots in the far back. I'll get them and you can try them on." She said.
After Ganondorf got into the new clothes he walked around to see how they felt. He wear a black under suit with a black tunic. His belt was black and his boots had red lining. His gloves were, as you guessed, black.
"How do I look? Too much black?" He asked.
"Nope. Black really fits you Ganon. So, onto the weapons?" Malon asked, giving the lady the rupees Ganon gave her.
"Yes. I'll wear these clothes out. Thank you." He said, him and Malon walking out and onto the weapons.
"I'd like a sword with holder, shield, bow and arrow please." Said Ganondorf.
The guy pulled them into the back and showed them his selection of swords.
Ganondorf saw all normal types of swords, but then spotted the one he wanted. It was made completely even metal, the handle was big enough for an adult, yet could fit him nicely. The weight wasn't bad. It had a jewel placed above the holder and the holder bent around to fit his hand perfectly.
"Can I get a holder with this?" He asked.
"Holder's are free here. But they are rather plain for such a sword. The one that is good for that brand is expensive." The owner told him.
"As long as the holder is small enough for me, yet big enough for the sword, is fine with me." Ganondorf answered.
He got his sword and a special made shield with the Gerudo symbol on the front and red around the edges to match what he was wearing. It was black. Shining black metal. Malon thought it was pretty.
"Let's go." Said Malon.
"Alright, but your going back to the ranch. I am going back to Gerudo Valley. I'm going to see if there is any trance of who did this." He said.
"But, can't I come with you?" She asked.
"No. It's too dangerous." He said.
"But, it's dangerous. You might get hurt! Think about it. Your just a kid. I don't want you to get hurt Ganon." She whined.
"Yes, but I am a Gerudo and their future King. It is my job to save my people. Now, go before you get hurt Malon. I couldn't bear to see anyone else I care for get hurt again." He said, and took off in the direction of Gerudo Valley.
Malon started after him. Watching his back disappear into the horizon.
'Ganon. But, I care about you too. My friend. My only friend.' She thought.
Ganondorf set himself to not turn back. This was his chance to get his family back. Or what was left of it at least.
He rode off and made his way to Gerudo Valley.
When he got there, he got off the horse. He hadn't remembered the name of this horse yet, but it seemed to like him a lot. It was pure black. And it's eyes were red.
"Ummm…. I wonder what Malon named you. Since you're a guy and your coat is black, why don't I call you… Sapono. That means in Gerudo, black as night. I hope you like the name." Ganondorf said.
Sapono, nudged him with his nose. His tiny hairs tickling Ganondorf's neck.
"Hey! Stop it! It tickles!" He said. Rubbing the face of the horse.
Ganondorf smiled. He got another friend. He loved having friends. That's what he realized when he saw Malon again. She was a friend. A very good one at that. And he loved having her as a friend. Now he has Sapono as his friend too.
Ganondorf walked to the entrance of the Fortress. He looked down at the dirt. Only he and some Gerudo's had horses. Therefore, horse tracks weren't that common around here.
He saw a bunch of horse tracks. Leading into the desert sands. He narrowed his eyes and walked to the entrance. Sapono nudged him.
"No. Stay back. I don't know my way that well, and I don't want you in trouble too." Ganondorf said.
Sapono snorted and continued to follow him. When Ganondorf would stop, Sapono would stop. When he continued, Sapono would continue.
"Alright, alright. You win. You can come. And since you are coming, you wouldn't mind me riding you in the desert." Ganondorf said.
Sapono seemed to be happy now. Ganondorf mounted Sapono, and they rode off into the desert after the Gerudo's.
